A fair description for the Tassel Pendant by Apparatus Studio might be something like, “chandelier, condensed.”

In fact, that’s how the very same brand describes this innovative contemporary light: “condensing the warmth and decadence of a traditional chandelier to a concise, modern conclusion.”

Up close, Tassel has a futuristic, sci-fi feel. The mold-blown cylinders look like incandescent test tube beakers, hatching up something beyond mere plans.

But that sinister aspect is belied by its warm, contained glow and elegant brass dome.

Finish options for Tassel include aged brass, black brass, and tarnished silver. It’s also available as a sconce.
